Re: Roskilde 2013

Hey Bongo, I have a question regarding the Roskilde message boards. Is there an option to send or receive PMs? If there is where is that feature? I am trying to sell Salah and my ticket and the forum won't let me post my e-mail address. I've got one person interested in one ticket but how can I do any sort of exchange without offering my e-mail?

Re: Roskilde 2013

The rules says this

3. All deals must be made at the forum. That mean we don’t allow posts like:
“I got a ticket for sale mail me at x@x.dk”
The price must be typed in the post, and agree with the buyer in the post, and then exchange contact information. Same goes if you are asking for a ticket.

Re: Roskilde 2013

If any of you are looking to sell a ticket to Roskilde 2013, I might be interested depending on the cost .I am trying to work a way to Denmark in June and need a good price on a ticket. Located in California if that is beneficial. Thanks!

Re: Roskilde 2013

Hey bongo, does it matter what name is on the ticket? I think I found someone to buy mine but I don't want to sell him a ticket that won't work if it is registered to my name. Thanks.

The name doesn't matter so no worries there.

I took a volunteer job this year but else I would have purchased your ticket.
I am going to sell tickets for the train shuttle so luckily I got half of my hours before the festival starts and only missing out on Thursday evening.

Re: Roskilde 2013

It was a very good time indeed, the weather was mixed in the first part of the week but Friday, Saturday and Sunday was very hot (by danish standards) so on that fron it was good.

I posted this "review" on the Roskilde board just after the festival.

Because of voluntering I didn┤t see as much as i wanted to but here we go.

Friday.

Dead Can Dance - 5/6 - The best possible way to start this years festival.

Turbonegro - I saw a little bit but not enough to judge the concert.

Of Monsters And Men - 5/6 - Maybe the crowd made the concert better than it was but I had a good time.

Then wached a little bit of Bobby Womack and Devind Townsend Project.

S÷nd÷rg÷ - 4/6 - THe is always something special by watching "world music" acts at Roskilde, both the crowd and the band had a good time, just watch the concert on this website and find out by yourself.

Then I tried to get a spot for Rihanna but it was to crowded so I went home instead.

Saturday.

Hoba Hoba Spirit - 4/6 - The crowd was a little bit "MorgentrŠt" to start with but at the end of the concert it was a huge party, The music at times reminded a little bit of the older RHCP songs and some of the other was rather bluesy.

Hatebreed - I can┤t judge it from the few song i saw but what a energy.

Thurston Moore artist talk - I don┤t think i can judge a interview but a very chatty crowd safety guard (yes number 49 I┤m talking about you) ruined the start so I moved closer to the stage but then another security guy asked me (and the others i presume) to stand up and then i was gone.

Kris Kristofferson - 4/6 - All the critics should go to hell, so what that the Orange stage wasn┤t filled to the brim.
I just sat in the grass in the back pit like many others and enjoyed the concert in a very relaxed way and I think that Kris felt the same way.

The National - 5/6 - Matt has such a stage presence and the sound was good.

I really wanted to see Quadron but i was tired and the tent was already full 30 minutes before the concert so I went home early again (had a 07:30 shift next morning)

Sunday.

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - 3/6 - I really tried to watch this concert but it didn┤t catch me at all, The music sounded fine but was not my thing.

Orgi-e feat F1rsteholdet and Opa Opa Orkestar - 5/6 - waaaaat a party and also a crazy amount of guest stars and I was afraid that the roof at Arena was going to blow off.

Then i was watching a little bit of Kid Koala, Marcus Valle and Colexico but i was probably to tired know to to keep focus.

Then I listened to some weird stuff at the artzone, there was no bass so even though the music was mediocre I could just sit down and relax.

Kraftwerk - 5/6 - One of my most amazing concerts experiences, the music was rather monotonous a few times but the hits and the 3D effects made the concert better.

2 things i know for the next time, Even if i go by myself another year I will camp and maybe hook up with a camp atleasrt its hard to commute between K°ge and Roskilde each day, i missed Sig˙r Ros because I couldn┤t get home in time to get some sleep in order to work the next morning.

If I volunteer again I will not take a job were I have to stand up for 8 hours and then listening to some music for many other hours.
